release on 1 year buyouts
Philip Larsen, $0.5m (2016-2018), $0.6m
Patrick Sieloff, $0.2m (2016-2018), $0.2m

confirm the trade, with heavy hearts the Canucks trade Auston Matthews. Most fans will be  and calling for my head.

In return we get Forsberg that has elite talent and is a top 10 LW, Bennett who has major upside if the flames would just use him properly and B.C boy Stecher who be getting even more pp time in Canucks City next year.
This is all about improving the stength of the team in long run, plus don't have to use one of 3 places to keep Stecher.
